There's one thing that every home — big or small, rented or owned — has in common. Eventually, it's going to need some improvement. And whether you're attempting your first basic DIY project as a homeowner or you're a seasoned home project pro, you're going to need a set of tools to get the job done. If you haven't already amassed your personal tool collection, you might want to head to Amazon to pick out a tool kit worth buying. These curated sets are often more affordable than going to a hardware store and picking out tools piece by piece, and they're convenient for quick fixes when you have just the tools you have on hand. Whether you're looking for a screwdriver set or a high-quality DEWALT power tool set, Amazon has it all.

Of course, when sorting through the offerings on Amazon, you'll quickly realize that not all tool kits are created equally (and also, that it takes a certain kind of patience to sort through all the listings to find the diamonds in the rough). To help you cut through the noise, we've taken a closer look at all the tool kits on Amazon and found the ones that stand out. Some are winners for their affordability, others for their impressive practicality. No matter what, they're the sets that will get you ready for every fix, installation, or project you tackle.

When it comes to tool sets, this one is the whole shebang. The FASTPRO 232-Piece 20V Cordless Lithium-Ion Drill Driver & Home Tool Set has just about all the tools every homeowner should have, including a cordless drill that's backed by a long-lasting lithium-ion battery and several drill bits. At under $125, you're getting tons of value for the price point. And one more bonus? Reviewers love that the tools are available in bright neon colors like green or pink, noting it made them easy to spot on the floor or around the worksite.

An oscillating tool is one of our must-buy power tools for first-time homeowners, thanks to its versatility for a range of jobs, like removing grout or rust, sanding floors or other details, or cutting electrical holes in drywall. The DEWALT 20V Oscillating Tool Kit comes in at a solid price point, considering you're getting a high-quality tool, plus accessories like sandpaper and an accessory adaptor that's compatible with other brands. Reviewers love that it's intuitive enough for beginners, yet heavy-duty enough to tackle big DIY house projects.

Ready for the big leagues — just don't have any of those big league power tools yet? You can get your entire all-star lineup in one DEWALT 20V Max Power Tool Combo Kit. It's packed with the heavy hitters, like reciprocating and circular saws, an oscillating multi-tool, a brushless drill/driver, a cut-off tool, and a wet/dry vacuum, plus great additions like a Bluetooth speaker and a compact jobsite blower. If you're going to find a use for these, you'll get tons of bang for your buck with this high-quality power suite of tools.

Sometimes, repairing something around the house looks less like knocking down a wall and more like tinkering with little devices. Whether it's your Nintendo Switch or your bedroom fan that's on the fritz, the HPFIX Precision Screwdriver Set is full of the precision tools that you need for electronics repairs. Along with providing a whopping 101 bit shapes and sizes to fit every little nook and cranny, this compact kit is well-designed. Each bit is magnetic, and the kit comes with a magnetic pad, so you'll never lose the itty-bitty pieces you need for every electronic fix.

If you're in the market for a cordless drill — and who isn't, given its ease and convenience factor when you just need to hang a quick shelf or assemble a dresser — check out the DEWALT 20V MAX Cordless Drill and Impact Driver Combo Kit. Reviewers love that this charges fast, is great quality for the price point, and has been durable enough to last them through countless DIY projects all around the house.

Looking for an excellent gift for a recent college grad or new renter, or just aren't sure you need all the tools that a more experienced DIYer would need? This Amazon Basics Tool Set with Easy Carrying Round Pouch is a super-compact, organized set featuring durable basics like a pair of pliers, a utility knife, wrenches, and a hammer. The magnetic screwdriver heads are a highlight — there are enough different sizes here to handle just about any basic project. All in all, it's a smart starter kit that can make even newbie homeowners or renters feel like an HGTV star.

If you love a good mechanic project as much as a home improvement one, the DEWALT Mechanics Tools Kit and Socket Set is a solid go-to tool kit. These sockets and precision tools are excellent for tuning up your cars, bikes, and motorcycles, and the wide range of sizes gives them tons of versatility, too. When you have a home project that requires a super-specific socket size, having this kit on hand will save you a trip to the hardware store.

Don't forget to let the littlest DIYers in on all the fixing fun! Giving kids a tool kit is a great way to empower their growing brains, let them exercise some creativity, and learn practical skills. We love the SHALL 26-Piece Kids Size Tool Set because, unlike many plastic or wooden toy sets, these steel and rubber tools actually work. They're safe — meaning they may not be quite as sharp or heavy-duty as items made for more experienced adults — but tools like a tape measure, a screwdriver set, a torpedo level, and an adjustable wrench can all be happily used by kids six and older.
